This appendix describes how to test the Sun Quad FastEthernet PCI adapter with its
FCode PROM selftest.
Note - To test the Sun Quad FastEthernet PCI adapter further, refer to the SunVTS
User’s Guide that shipped with your operating system.
Using the OpenBoot PROM FCode
Selftest
The following tests are available to help identify problems with the Sun Quad
FastEthernet PCI adapter if the system does not boot.
You can invoke the FCode selftest diagnostics by using the OpenBoot user
interface test or test-all commands. If you encounter an error while running
diagnostics, appropriate messages will be displayed. Refer to the OpenBoot 3.x
Command Reference Manual for more information on the test and test-all
commands.
The selftest exercises most functionality sub-section by sub-section and ensures
the following:
Isolates faulty field replaceable units (FRUs)
Checks, with a high confidence, that no hardware fault exists on No Trouble
Found (NTF)
Checks connectivity during adapter card installation
Verifies that all components are functional
